1. Team Spin Down Members: Morgan Muren Matt Nusbaum

2. Research - Types 2 Classes ▫Velocity Type  Cup Style  Windmill (vane type)  Hot-wire  Laser Doppler  Sonic ▫Pressure Measurement  Plate Type  Tube Type

3. Research - Applications Used in: ▫Sailing Vessels ▫Weather Stations ▫Turbine Control ▫Ventilation and Ductwork How it works: ▫Wind is caught in the cups and spins the device, the RPM is then counted. The RPM is then calibrated against a correction factor thus producing a velocity.

4. Problem Statement To develop a device that can test the mechanical characteristics of a cup anemometer and record and display the output to the user. Total test time taking less then 2 minutes.

5. Possible Solutions Spin Up ▫Mechanically Grab and Spin ▫Use compressed Air ▫Use a fan Measurement ▫Light Gate to count revolutions ▫Output of anemometer Output ▫Visual pass/fail ▫Raw Data ▫Formatted File Output

6. Next Steps Meet with sponsor ▫Gain scope of project  Model Types  Interface  Data Output Brainstorm More Defined Problem Statement Gain a Sample for Testing Delegation of Responsibilities within the Team Draft a Schedule
